Training

Paediatric

Paediatric first aid isn't just a skill, it’s a responsibility, particularly for those who are involved with children.

Children are curious, energetic and know no danger. Their smaller bodies and developing systems make them more susceptible to injury and illness. Our paediatric first aid training will equip you to respond effectively to these unique medical needs.

For those working in childcare settings, such as playgroups, schools, or as childminders, paediatric first aid is not just an asset—it’s a legal requirement. Employers and parents trust caregivers who have completed our first aid training to keep children safe and respond effectively in emergencies.

Training with us empowers and boosts confidence in your ability to handle emergency situations involving children.

This regulated and nationally recognised qualification provides learners with the knowledge and practical competencies needed to safely perform Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) and use an Automated External Defibrillator (AED).

First aiders, previously called appointed persons are an integral part of workplace safety. Workplaces must appoint a suitable number of first aiders, with this training being the minimum standard.

Emergency First Aid at Work

£79

First aiders are an integral part of workplace safety. The Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations 1981 require all employers to make arrangements to ensure their employees receive immediate attention if they are injured or taken ill at work. This includes appointing a suitable amount of first aiders and providing appropriate first aid training.

First Aid at Work

£199

HSE guidelines state that employers should ensure their first aiders remain competent to perform their role. As such, it is strongly recommended that first aiders undertake annual refresher training to practise their skills and update their knowledge on the latest first aid procedures.

First Aid at Work Annual Refresher

£39

First aiders are required to refresh their skills and re-qualify every three years. This is a shortened version of our three day First Aid at Work to meet re-qualification requirements.

First Aid at Work Requalification

International resuscitation guidelines recommend training in the use of Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) to save lives. This regulated and nationally recognised qualification provides learners with the opportunity to develop their skills and knowledge in basic life support (BLS) and AED usage in emergency situations.
